Yes, it had precisely the same air-cooled boxer engines that were in the Volkwagen Beetles of that era.

I actually had sex in a Ghia. My GF pissed all over the seat. It was her mom's car and mom had a fit. After that we could only have sex on the picnic table which we could wash off with the hose.

Ah, Lucas electrics. All of the mechanics I know refer to Lucas as The Prince of Darkness. LOL.

Except for the Midgets...now those cars rock.

Sure, if the Lucas electrics did not quit on you before the finish...or the massive loss of oil pressure due to leaking gaskets.
But aaide from that, yeah, MGs are greeeeeat. lol

Except power of 20 million cars worldwide?
Yeah, that Type-1 one was really a GIANT disaster for VW. You fail.
The Type-1, designed by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche in the 1930s, helped make VW the 4th largest automaker in the word, sold more cars than Ford's Model T, and put more people on wheels who could not afford to do so.
What has the 2CV done? Broken down while going from garage to garage. lol
There is a REASON the Type-1 sold so much. It is called DURRABILITY, look it up son.

You display your ignorance. MG does not make engines. They install engines from other manufacturers in their cars. the A-series is from Austin, not MG, you idiot.
The VW engine is tuned for reliability and economy, something not to be said for ANY engine in a vintage MG. lol
Oh yeah, the VW engine dates from the 1930s. The A-series started production in 1951, read a book kid.
I owned an MG, also a piece of crap...though fun to drive. But still junk. |
